Incident Description:
My bike was taken out of the basement of the house I rent an apartment in while I was at work on Memorial Day. It was still in pieces from moving from out-of-state and wasn't locked up. I think it rather unlikely that a stranger walked in and took it, it was probably someone in one of the other 3 apartments in the house. I called all the bike shops in McHenry county to keep an eye out for it but it's very possible that the thief took it into Chicago to sell. My bike is fairly unique looking (see the description) and should be easy to identify if it's in it's original condition. I would have posted on here sooner, but just learned of the site. The color is darker than in the Mountain Bike Magazine clipping I uploaded.
